I mean, on the one hand, there really is some appalling written fic out there, as bad as this, or sometimes worse.
Yeah, I've seen fics that are extremely bad; as bad as this actually, and it was clear that the author wasn't joking. Luckily, in the small world of Kotor fandom, they are at a minimum. I think that might be because the people who are Star Wars fans tend to run a bit older than in other fandoms.
On the other hand... looking at the POTC story she did, do people really do that Oh!!1!! thing?
I've seen some actual fics that do this, and I've also seen reviews that do the OMG!!! UR Asum!111! Plz Wrte More!!!!1111!!!1 thing... I'd like to think that it is all one big internet joke or something, but sadly, every time I've seen it, it looks like the writer is serious...
I did think the "pro-Disciple backhand bitchslap" (that's such a fabulous way of putting it - Heh) has to be intentional. As kosiah pointed out, it's just too clever not to be intentional.
Plus, if the author were serious, we would probably be seeing a bunch of pissing and moaning about how everyone was flaming them when they reviewed the story.
